Events
Art Club:
Need an excuse to work on your art? Bring your current project to How Novel and spend a couple hours socializing while you add to your masterpiece! No lessons, per se, but your fellow artists would be more than happy to share tips of the trade. How Novel has supplies for anyone who needs a starter kit. Make time for yourself and your creative expression from 3-5PM on the second Saturday of the month.
